ALDER-KNOTTY CC
PLAIN SLICED – PLANK MATCH – MDF CORE
3/4″ – 4×10 Knotty Alder Panel – Plain Sliced with Plank Match – CC – MDF Core
This Knotty Alder MDF panel has an “C” grade Alder veneer on both the face and back
Alder, when freshly cut, is very pale, almost white in color. As it begins to oxidize, the color grows deeper and takes on golden and red tones. Heartwood occurs only in trees of advanced age. The boundary between Alder sapwood and heartwood is virtually invisible. The wood has a fine, uniform textured with a straight, yet subdued grain.
The veneer is plain sliced and then plank matched to give the veneer faces more of a solid wood look. The use of plank matching will avoid concentrating desired natural characteristics together on a panel face.
Plank match is when dissimilar (in color, grain or width) veneer leaves of the same species are specially selected and assembled in a specific order to create a particular look. This method creates a casual or rustic effect. The components may be of different widths within the panel face.
C Grade/Rustic – Our rustic grade (C) provides the most concentrated level of natural characteristics
